ber of carts have been provided for carrying it to and fro ; and the postmen in the rural districts have been supplied with donkeys.The tricycle is also being used to some extent for the purpose.According to the London Times, a new agitation, an offshoot of the Land League, is springing up in the West of Ireland and threatens to give serious trouble.It is on the part of the shepherds, and has quietly grown to formidable proportions, nearly 2000 members, it is said, being now enrolled.Its spirit is similar to that of the League, and its mode of action modelled after the same fashion.Its members refuse to take the situations from which members have Leen unjustly dismissed, enforce certain regulations as to wages and dwellings, and refuse to work for obnoxious persons, Meet- Hits are regularly Meld; iew members enrolled, and money subscribed more liberally, in proportion to the means of the members, than in the National League.Says Goldwin Smith : The boom is over, and which follows the use of false stimulants in the case of protectionist legislation, as well as in the case of brandy.Cotton men are holding councils to limit production , and of course employment at the same time.Wo commend to them the example of the protectionists of Java who used to burn all the spices above a certain quantity in order to keep up the price.Would that the Finance Minister had adhered to the policy of common sense.Commander Ashdown, of the steamship Siam, writes to the London Times that on August 1, when in latitude G° south, longitude 89° east, on her way from King Georges Sound to Colombo, his ship passed for more than four hours thru lava, which extended as far as the eye could see, The lava was floating in a succession of \u201clanes\u201d of from 5 to 10 yards wide, and its direction was north-west to south-east.New York, Sept.26.\u2014Before the Senate Labor Committee, to-day, Joseph Medill, of the Chicago Tribune, said the chief cause of the impecunious condition of the masses of laborers was their own improvidence.The only way to improve them was to teach them to save.Too much of the earnings of the laborer were | strength of 2,585 Ibs, which affords a consider- ; able in over all the requirementa of actual service.These are the obvious practical ad- van which the material over the wire fence, and when it is considered that four strips afford » complete protection against the excursions or incursions of vagrantly inclined stock, its cheapness must at once be admitted.That is the practical side of the question, but there is also the æsthetic side, for it presents a neat and bandsome appearance, and incites the husbandman to relative nicety all around.No one who has lain abed with grim forebodings of the damage errant swine were most likely working in the corn field, or thinking of the benefit his neighbor's cattlo were getting fram clover that was never intended for them, or perchance dreading the cheerleas chase after his owa horses in the morning, con affesd tevbe without the feeling of actual security which a moderate outlay in Flat Steel Barb Fencing will afford.To preserve grapes, remove all imperfect bor- ries ; dry the bunches thuroly, pack them in saw-dust and place them in a temperature as near 31° Far.as possible \u201430° will do no harm.Romo, September 20.\u2014An enormous crowd witnessed the ceremonies attending the commemoration of the entry of the Italian troops inte Rome in 1875.The Syndic, alluding to the King's visit to Vienna, said the ancient enmity between Austria and Italy had changed to sincere friendship, The Syndic then placed a wreath on tho tomb of Victor Emanuel.To ascertain if any textile fabric is of veggetablo or animal material take a small piece of It and hold it near the glowing coals.Cotton or linen fibres will burn with flame and leavo only a slight ash.Woolen or silk fabrics will nob burn with flame, and leave much ash, Au interesting and successful attempt has just been made in Prussia to make ravens do the work of carrier pigeons, A few days ago three of these birds which had been especially trained for the purpose were thrown up at Odblentz, and all threo arrived at Thurant, a distance of about thirtcen miles in eighteen minutes.Their flight is somewhat slower than that of pigeons, but they aro safer as carriers, g they are less exposed to hostile attacks, Canon Wilberforce has made a vigorous attack upon the holding by the Lstablished Church of its immense propertics in public houses, a number of the most prosperous gin pelaces being maintained under its direct administration.The Church in London has long since admitted its inability to deal with the spiritual needs of the poor, but the recent report of the committee which inquired into its public house property shows that it bas no scruple or iffieulty in maintaining the liquor traffic, trentious efforts havo kept this scandal quiet, and prevented the impairment of Church revenues which application of the remedy would entail.It would appear, however, that facts are about to see the light, and that a vigorous agitation has been begun, and will bo efficiently prosecuted.\u201cLily, tell me what animals you seo in the house.\u201d \u201cA cat\u201d \u201cWhat else?\u201d \u201cCeose, chickens, horses.\u201d \u201cBut you forgot one, which we even put up with in our rooms ;

one went thru the wall of the arsenal, and another struck the artillery barracks, .Anciont records disprove the popular belief that green has always been the national color of Ireland.Not to mention other testimony,a drawing in the British Museum which was mado in the timo of Elizabeth, or at lcast registered the colors as they existed in her reign, shows the Irish flag as a harp with strings argent on an azure ground.Perhaps, in the lapse of years, the blue has changed to and Fall Suitings, Horse Blankets, Cosey Oa green thru imperceptible gradations.THE TEETH.Our teeth serve their purpose mainly by grinding on each other; hence they would soon wear away, oxcept that their exposed parts are coated with the hardest of all animal substances, The food needs to be first cut, and then ground ; hence, the cutting teeth (incisors) are in front, and grinding teeth (inoiars) are behind.Teeth are not necessary to the infant, and would be a painful discomfort to the mother ; hence, the child is born toothless.As teeth never enlarge in size, a first set is \\ AND FANCY GOODS\u2014A Magnifieent Stock, Wo will now take leavo of tho Ladies, while they are enjoying pleasant thoughts as to the very shade of a Buit, and other things they expect to buy at ALrx.McNavanTon's, and ask the sterner sox-\u2014tho bono and sinew of the ocountrg\u2014to road, and to aot upon the fact that at Arex, Mo- Navauron's they can get the best REApY-uips CLOTHINU (in suits to match), Ovanooase and ULsTERs ;

PYF LY for GOLD and SILVER WATCHES, ; water may fill it with numerous tiny cracks, | op CHAINS, NECKLETS, LOCKETS, \u201ceu thru which acids aud fungi may find their destructive way.Mainly consisting of lime, it | is often dissolved, and tho teeth are thus rained, | by medicines containing acid.Moreover, the natural secretions of the mouth are often rendered injurious to the tceth by disease itself.Precautions should bo taken to neutralize tho effect in both cases, As dental science has nade such progress of late years that all decay taken in time may he arrested, people should have their own teeth and those of their children examined by n good dentist as often at least ns onco a year.Teething is a source of much danger and suffering, especially in delicate children, and in children of peculiar susceptibility.According to a paper read at a late meeting of the American Wolical Association, the mortality from teething and its accompanying diseases is greater than from all other diseases to which children aro subject.The growing root pushes against and irritates tho nerve below, while the tooth is working its way thru the flesh and skin above.Tho danger is increased many fold from the influence (reflex) on the nerves of the brain, stomach and bowels.The common remedy is to lance the gums and restrict the child to a diet of milk.New York, Sopt 26.\u2014The steamship City of Alexandria arrived to-day with particulars of tho hurricane at Nassau on the 8th Sept.All means of liquid alumina.As the process is applicable to any kind of clothing, it is of general interest.Theo r0edical authorities, it is said, have satisfied themselves that the process does not prevent the perspiration from passing off freely, and chemical analysis shows that the preparation used in no way injures the materials or destroys their colors.Clothing which was subjected to the process and then worn, altho rinsed and washed, remained perfectly waterproof.The only drawback to the pro- oss is that it is rather expensive, and to ensure the desired result it must be conducted on a large scale.Dungannon, Ireland, Sept.26 \u2014Mr Thomas spent in liquor and tobacco.He calculated that the amount annually spent in drink was at least $400,000,000, and at least $200,000,000 for tobacco and useless amusements.High licenses and low rents would do much towards.lessening the evil.Witness had little faith in political prohibition.Unhealthy tenement ouses should be torn down.Tho present tariff was fleecing the farmers.Co-operation could only be possible when the co.operators were better educated.What the country wanted was more mechanics.An industrial school should be established in every large city.Railroads should not be permitted to exercise power by changing their rates, or arbitrarily changing the value of all the products of the country.Both State and Federal legislation should be employed to remedy this evil.© vexed question of efficient fencing is one which is agitating tho minds of farmers continually, and it is only after having placed reliance in inferior grades of poorly devised materials that they rise to a just conception of the imperative need of having a fence that will not only keep their own stock in bounds, but keep their neighbors\u2019 from trespassing.Tho flat steel strip barb fencing material has many obvious advan , and several which are not quite so superficial.Its barbs are sufficiently severe to give a warning that progress is not to be had in that direction, and yet they do mot inflict such & lacerating wound as the cruder kinds ; it has great strength, which at once allows it to be stretched straight at the outset Power O'Connor and Mr Sinall, members of Parliament, visited Aughnacloy market to-day for the purpose of holding a political meeting.They were unable to speak as Orangemen too possession of the place and compelled them to remain within doors.The Orangemen held a meetingin the principal streets, when shouts of \u201cNo Home Rule\u201d were raised, and cheers for the Queen given, The mob announced their intention of keeping possession of the town until O'Connor and Small withdrew and declared they would remain up all night to prevent the Parnellites erecting a platform.Three thousand Orangemen will parade to-morrow, and afterwards hold anti-Parnellite meetings.Orange bands played thruout the night.Great excitement prevails.A troop of lancers, 100 infantry, and 300 police have been drafted to Dungannon.London, Sept.24.\u2014A terrific explosion occurred in the rocket factory of the Woolwich Arsenal this morning by which a large number of persons were killed and wounded, and the building and those immediately surrounding it wero badly wrecked.As far as can be learned at present the disaster resulted from the mysterious expl¢sion of one of a bunch of, rockets, the sparks from which igniting others set them off one after another with lightning rapidity, A regular fusilade ensued, the missiles e=.ploding in all directions with deafening detor ations, resembling the firing of numerous bast tories of artillery.The workmen became Panic stricken aod fled precipitately from the and keeps sightly a long &s it lasts ;

a request to which the Mayor had cheerfully acceded and for which they were under obligation to him.The amount subscribed was $57.The idea of the Council undertaking the celebration did not strike him as right, and he considered that it would be i better that it should be done by private enterprise, as first intended.{ Mr Blachford confirmed what Mr Shanks ; had said.Mr Alex.MeNaughton, merchant, said he had only attended one meeting, and at which many entertained favorably the idea of the village council undertaking the celebration.He was not of that opinion, and thought every dollar { requisite should be obtained voluntarily, for he was against any individual being taxed against his wish.Dr Shirriff had not attended any of the | meetings referred to, and was in favor of the i celebration being assumed by the citizens.They had good cause for a celebration, and had many precedents, as the celebration at the opening of the Suez canal, the Prince of Wales driving the last rivet of the Victoria bridge, and the completion of the Northern Pacific railway, when a gold spike had been driven, Of course we cannot emulate those instances, but we should do the best we can.Mr McNaughton wished to have the cooperation of all, even of those who had been opposed to the bonus.Any of those who were iat one time enemies to the Grand Trunk, he should like to hear from.After a prolonged silence, the Mayor requested a motion should be made.{Dr Shirriff asked what plan of celebration the committee proposed.: Mr Shanks said they had thought it advisable to invite certain parties to be present, and to be guests of the village, 1st, the officials of the road, and 2nd, some parties along the line, both up and down.They estimated that $100 or 8125 would be sufficient, and tho not over half of the people had been gone over yet $57 of the required amount had been subscribed, and part of it paid in.Mr David Elder\u2014When you were like to get enough, why did you not go on?Mr Shanks said he had just learned that the opening day would not be on the 8th, as they had been led to believe.He did not know, but supposed the road would not be sufficiently complete for the inspector by that date.Moved by Mr McNaughton, seconded by Dr J.T.McPherson: That the celebration be by private subscription and not by the Council, Mr Shanks asked that the motion be changed to read: \u201cThat there be a celebration, aud that the funds be supplied by private subscription, and not by the Council,\u201d but Mr McNaughton refused, asking the motion to be put as he stated it.On a show of hands being asked, 12 were held up for it, and none against, Mr McNaughton wanted to know if any of those who had been opposed to the bonus were willing to act.He, for one, would be disposed to act with them, _ Mr Shauks thought that so delicate a question that none would like to rise and answer it.Let us propose a committee, Mr McNaughton said he felt the meeting was not at one with those in favor of a celebration, and would like to hear from those who had been in opposition to the bonus.He would propose that the committee already appointed to canvass the village for subscriptions, namely Messrs Shanks, Hassan, and McPherson, be re-appointed and with power to add to their number.Mr Alex.Third thought it strange that, out of so large a meeting, only 2 persons, and they in favor of the Grand Tropk, should be doing all the speaking.(Laughter) Instead of the meeting acting, they had only those two gentlemen making motions, and seconding motions, and all the rest silent and not even voting on the motions submitted.Before anything was done, they should have ascertained the tone and sentiment of the meeting.He would like to have every one get up and express their opinions.He did not believe in one or two making motions, It was all nonsense.(Laughter.) To put an end to such child's play, and to give all a chance to express their views, he would move to vote down the motion just made.(Applause).r R.M.Campbell, in seconding Mr Me- Naughton\u2019s motion, would say that they should now lay aside all feeling as to what road they would have liked.These were things of the past, and what they had now to consider was that they wero about to be placed in railway communication with the metropolis, That was an era in the history of the village, which, he thought, they all could agree in celebrating, and should unite to make the celebration a success.Mr Third not pressing his amendment, Mr McNaughton's motion was put, when 7 voted for it and none against._ Mr Third again expressed his disgust at passing motions in such à way.The meeting had not said that it wanted a celebration, He did not believe in this motion-tmotion ing by two individuals, and would move that the meeting adjourn until some fatase day. æ 05 & @S Ww a \u201c
